“Roll over Beethoven and tell Tchaikovsky the news!” So sang Chuck Berry in 1956 at the onset of the rock-and-roll age, and the big news at the start of 2013 is the sale of a preeminent collection of keepsakes, rarities and trophies that chart the some of the most monumental moments and careers in rock-and-roll history.

Now, thanks to Nye and Company, baby-boomers, rock-and-roll fans, Dead Heads, and even groupies have the chance to acquire these talismans for their own enjoyment, from January 22 through February 5, 2013. This great trove of rock memorabilia from signed guitars to autographed back-stage passes goes on sale — on iGavel, the online auction platform founded by Lark Mason, the nationally known Antiques Roadshow television personality.
